E124, Terbufos.

  • Ontario leachate quality criteria

    Terbufos

Ontario TCLP limit: 0.1 mg/L for Terbufos.

Ontario leachate limit of 0.1 mg/L for terbufos, a highly toxic organophosphate soil insecticide.

Is Ontario E124 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the leachate limit is met. This Ontario class is hazardous when the TCLP extract holds terbufos at 0.1 mg/L or more. A result exactly at the limit counts, subject to the regulation’s exclusions. A concentration in the original bulk waste is a different measure.

For a shipment of this waste, the generator records the 3-digit class and primary characterization in the waste-number details of the Ontario hazardous waste manifest. The hazardous-waste number names the constituent for the assessment. It doesn't replace the class-and-letter waste number. Land-disposal treatment standards are assessed separately.

What does Ontario E124 cover?

This class covers terbufos in the extract from the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP), with a limit of 0.1 mg/L. It describes a leachate-toxic constituent, not an industry, container or physical form. Ontario sets treatment requirements for land disposal separately.

Is terbufos always Ontario E124?

CodeWhen it fits
E124The TCLP extract holds 0.1 mg/L or more of the constituent.
This constituent criterion not metThe TCLP extract holds less than 0.1 mg/L. Other hazardous criteria still need assessing.

A result below the limit for one constituent says nothing about other constituents, characteristic hazards or listed-waste rules. Apply the classification limit first, then look at the separate land-disposal treatment standard.
